A needle scaler is a targeted surface preparation tool, ideal for work in small or confined spaces, where traditional wet-blasting units may struggle for access, or may not be suitable. Needle scalers are regularly used to remove coatings around live services - with a smaller impact pattern allowing for a more targeted treatment.

Yes, the needle scaler requires a compressor to run. The air consumption for the device is 2.6 - 5.5 lps - cfm. It's important that the air compressor is correctly calibrated before using the device. This will ensure the device isn't damaged by air pressure that is too high, or the device isn't performing effectively by air pressure that is too low.
